Sinopsis(1)
The promise of higher wages , which they could never earn as nomadic livestock herders, lures people from rural areas to Ulaanbaatar. The film’s protagonist leaves his livelihood in the tundra and works as a garbage truck driver. He has left his wife Tunguu and their two children – gifted student Udvaal, and Bilguuna, due to take over the family’s herd after his father. But city life and his sporadic visits home take their toll on Tumurbaatar‘s marriage and relationship with his children. Thanks to the thoughtfully led camera, we join the life of one family, caught just when economic pressure forces people to abandon their traditions with visions of a better future for themselves and their children.
